Read about some of the families who we’ve helped secure the right education for their child and who have kindly written about their experiences.


Maria needed to find the right school to meet her daughter’s needs. But first, they had to navigate a number of disputes with their local authority. Langley Wellington Education Lawyers helped the family with both issues…

George had many difficulties stemming from his complex autism. Despite his parents asking their local authority for a specialist residential placement, it named another day school. His parents were desperate for help and turned to our specialist team of solicitors.

Matthew’s parents came to our specialist SEND lawyers after they had experienced repeated refusals from their local authority to get him the education he really needed.

Max, who’s autistic, was due to transfer to secondary school when his parents contacted us. He’d had statutory support since he was eight, but now his parents knew he needed a specialist placement for secondary. Their local authority refused so our specialist solicitors stepped in to help.

Suzy has severe and complex needs and a rare genetic condition. She badly needed a holistic, specialist residential school on a 52-week placement. Her family came to our education solicitors when their local authority named a patchwork of inadequate provision.
